The article is a book review of "American Crusade: Christianity, Warfare, and National Identity, 1860-1920" by Benjamin J. Wetzel. The book explores the period between the Civil War and World War I, arguing that it was a time of intense Christian nationalism in America. The author examines how elite Protestant ministers in the North supported American involvement in wars and promoted a religified patriotism, but also acknowledges the existence of dissenting voices within the national faith community. The review praises the book for its comprehensive research, detailed analysis, readability, and logical structure. [Extracted from the article] |
